Rockbird was the second solo album by Debbie Harry. Released in November, 1986, there were three versions of the album artwork with the lettering either pink, green or orange.

Harry spent five years working on this album, with delays resulting because she was nursing her lover, and former Blondie member Chris Stein through a near-fatal illness.

The album peaked at number 32 in the UK, and remained in the charts for 11 weeks. Three singles were released from it, "French Kissin' In The USA", which reached number 8 in the UK to become Harry's only solo top 10 single in that territory, "Free To Fall", which reached number 46, and "In Love With Love", which reached number 45. "French Kissin'" also reached number 57 on the Billboard Hot 100.
